(Okay, so I (Gina) have been lollygagging a bit during the holidays (and unapologetically so.. it's been great!) but I didn't get this intention post up in a timely way. It's still relevant, in my opinion, and I think you'll enjoy it.)
From Cindy: "As I sit and ponder what my intentions for this new year will be for my clients and family, one thing comes to mind! It was sent to me by Jill and Joey Korn and I decided there is nothing more I would love to pass along than "The Gift of a Blessing".
Even though Jill and I are Jewish, Christmas Day has become a special day in our lives. For one, we Jews get a *real* day off, with nothing special to do, unless we choose. Also, special things have happened to me on Christmas Day. Jill and I have a reverence for the day.
On this very special day, we want to share with you a very special gift. This is a gift we have shared before; I share it every day, sometimes many times a day. It’s the gift of a blessing. It’s actually more a gift of helping you to recognize the power of “the blessing process” that each of you has in your life. Although we each have this gift, so few of us use it. I encourage you to use it. To integrate it into your throughout-each-day life.
Your life will change—and for the better.
Many people ask me, “What is it that you do? What is this dowsing? What does finding a place to drill a water well have to do with being spiritual?”
For me, dowsing, or “divining”, is not just about finding a place to drill or dig a well or about finding anything in the physical world. It’s about detecting energy.
It’s about tapping into our own God-given ability to explore the world of subtle energies that are everywhere within and around us. It’s about drawing ever closer to the Divine in our lives.
Dowsing for me has become a way to demonstrate that the blessing process works. Not only does it work, but I consider it the most powerful Force in the universe. And again, everyone has this Force at their disposal. At their beckoned call.
But we must call. We must initiate the process to use this Force. It’s not enough just to recognize the blessings we have in life and to express gratitude for them, though this is important. We must call on whatever we consider the Divine to bless us if we want, purposefully, to use this Force that is ever present in our lives.
I consider us, as human beings, to be “blessing beings.” You see, whether we know it or not, we are always changing the energies within and around us, with every thought, action and emotion. But most of us are doing more negative blessings than positive blessings. With our negative thoughts, actions and emotions, we’re actually changing the energies within and around us to be detrimental, without even realizing that we are doing it!
When we get angry, fearful, or vengeful, those very energies fill and surround us, reflecting us back to us. This is what I call “negative blessings.” Not only do we do it, but we indulge in it, we dwell on it, and we tell others about it. Understand that under Universal Law, our Creator has it set up that the energies around us and within us are always reflecting us back to us. This gives us a better understanding of expressions like, “What you put out comes back to you,” or “What you sow, so shall you reap.”
What I help people do is understand what is going on energetically, behind the scenes in life. With negative thoughts, actions and emotions, we fill and surround ourselves with detrimental, weakening energies.
With positive thoughts, actions and emotions, we fill and surround ourselves with beneficial, healing blessings. And you can find and experience all these energies with dowsing! By understanding that this is taking place, day in and day out, we can take charge of the process with blessing, especially with what I call “the Simple Blessing Process.”
The Simple Blessing Process is broken down into five components parts.
The first three activate the blessing; they make it work. The next two are for us. It is important for us to feel gratitude, but God, whatever God Is, does not need our gratitude. God needs nothing.
But our Creator desires us to activate the Forces--to create. And closing the blessing with something like “Amen” is an act of faith. You are turning your blessing request over to a Higher Power, and you acknowledge that by closing the blessing.
So here are the five components of the Simple Blessing Process.
1) Address the Divine in whatever way you’re comfortable with.
2) Ask to be blessed and/or charged with energy
3) Define a purpose, which can be general or specific. I suggest both.
4) Express gratitude.
5) Close your blessing.
Below is an example of the Simple Blessing Process. You can say it over yourself, over others, over objects you wear, or over substances you eat and drink. You can even say it over empty space, such as where you might spend a lot of time, or over your entire home, and you’ll change the energies there. When you say this blessing, you are charging yourself or whatever or whomever you bless with beneficial energy at exactly the frequency defined in your intent. It really works!
Dear God (or however you address the Divine)
Please bless me and charge me with Your loving energy
To bring healing and balance to my complete being,
Physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.
* (Optional. See below)
Thank you.
Amen.
*This is where you can add something specific, such as:
“Especially to help me…”
So this is our gift to you, the gift of the Blessing Process. Learn it. Understand it. Use it. Say it often, with feeling. Integrate it into your throughout-each-day life. I suggest you say it routinely, at least twice a day, such as when you wake up and when you go to bed. Then say it again whenever you catch yourself stressing about anything, or angry, or sad. Bless yourself and whoever or whatever your stressing about.
To those of you who celebrate Christmas, we wish you a very Merry one. To those who don’t, may you have a wonder-full day.
And have a safe, happy, healthy New Year ahead to all. May 2010 be your best year ever…so far.
